D3Live: iPad HD

2011-07-09
hey guys and welcome to this week's episode of d3 live so today would be talking about some of the rooms we've been hearing about the ipad HD now this is going to be something entirely different from what we're expecting to see in the ipad 3 and definitely lines up with a lot of the talk and rumors and all that kinda stuff what we've been hearing so here's the way it goes supposedly here in september-october some point somewhere towards the end of the year we are going to be seeing a new variant of the iPad so of course the ieee standard ipad 2 it's not going to be replacing it's going to be in addition so of course like a different versions of the macbook the macbook air macbook pro cetera et cetera you're going to be different versions of the ipad so what this ipad HD is going to be all about is more of a professional ipad so of course the current ipad 2 it's great there's a lot to like about it but it's definitely aimed at consumers as opposed to professionals and of course with a touchscreen with a lot of power all that kind stuff there's some really cool things you can do with it including video editing photo editing audio on the list goes on and on on but there's a lot of really cool things you can do with it and that's what really the ipad HD is aiming for so what the major thing about the ipad HD is you probably could guess from the name is that it's going to have a new high-definition screen with roughly the double rebel solution at the ipad 2 Sofia 2048 x 1536 display which is going to be super super high resolution on you and just a 9.7 inch tablet or whatever it's the exact size of it I would imagine it's going to be about the same size it's going to be a very very high resolution display now some of the other things let me surprise it's going to be thicker the ipad 2 is super super thin so this is going to be more of a professionally oriented tablets not going to be so much for consumers who you want super through it and all that kind of stuff let me surprise with a little bit bulkier perhaps a little bit more durable i don't think it's going to be ugly it's going to be something really hideous looking or anything like that but another thing that they're going to try to bulk it up and make it a little bit more towards the professionals also as far as the internal specs go would be surprised if it does ship with probably 32 and 64 gigabytes of capacity 16 gigabytes FML i think that's a little me a little bit low in considering it's going to be more of a high-end device and also when we surprised if it gets a little bit faster of us cpu now it may still have the Apple a5 but it wouldn't be surprised me concerning it's going to be more of a professionally oriented tablet that will probably have something more like 1.2 1.5 or something like that I'm not getting away from that inward of the software i do expect it will still run iOS 4.3 so I don't really see foresee any major changes I think everything will work pretty much the same as it does on the ipad 2 however one of the biggest things is that some of the apps that should be coming over now the ipad 2 currently has sort of really nice apps including iMovie and GarageBand and you can do a lot of work on those however I think that they're going to bump it up a notch by perhaps bringing some more professional oriented applications over such as Final Cut Pro 10 final cut if you've ever seen it on the mac it definitely looks like you could bring those the ipad 2 with minimal fuss i'm also perhaps something like aperture yeah there's quite a few of the Apple products you more oriented towards professionals that they could bring over to the ipad 2 and really make the ipad the ipad h2 more of a big thing for professionals anyway for the second time you've d3 live over taking live questions from everyone in the chat as always every episode of d3 life is filmed in front of a live audience we've got quite a few people in the room right now so let's just take a couple of questions a flash support in it definitely not I think that you know the current suite of Apple devices are definitely capable flesh but apple and adobe they're just never going to see eye to eye in my opinion so no I don't think we will ever see flash on an Apple device at least not anytime soon whatsoever will there be fully functional versions of Adobe products like a photoshop or after effects I know that kind of comes around to the flash I think Apple at Adobe still aren't seeing eye-to-eye helper with this ipad HD I think that's definitely something that they're looking for I think that if they were able to get something like your photoshop or after effects or indeed any of the major Adobe product I think that would be a big boon to the ipad HD I think that's really what they're aiming for they want to get people who are looking for like a laptop like some really high end laptop when you know core i7 all that kind of stuff to do you know design working that kind of stuff they want to try to get sell you instead hey look this is an iPad it's got a touchscreen really high resolution all that kind of stuff which there's definitely a lot to be said about being able to touch your projects and you know trim and all that kind of stuff with your fingers as opposed to using a mouse keyboard or even watch a trackpad faster cpu yeah like I was saying earlier I wouldn't be surprised if they bump it up they may just leave it the 85 certainly isn't that bad but since these are going to be some really professional applications like Final Cut everything and that aren't sure how a 1 gigahertz dual-core processor is going to handle that so I wouldn't be surprised as I do bumped up to 1.2 1.5 or who knows but yeah I wouldn't be surprised they do that I will still run iOS Mac OS or some beefed up version of iOS personally I think it's just gonna be iOS I mean they could make some changes but I think what a lot of the ipad HD is going to be about is just the absolute it runs I don't think it's gonna be so much about you know overhauling it or making this brand new experience because it's not i think it's just going to be the ipad with you know hopefully more power in your better screen that kind of stuff and have the apps the professionals want so in my opinion i think is going to be the exact same as iOS i don't think it's going to be any kind of crazy things indeed i think oh one of the coming back to the rumors about it we saw like oh unless they likely in the blaster we saw like there was an iBooks update actually had graphics for a screen like the ipad HD so i think a lot of these things kind of come together and that's why I think the ipad HD makes a lot of sense what will the camera resolution and pricing be well as far as the camera resolution actually I'm actually not helps ensure people coming cameras come with cameras rather because this is not going to be a consumer-oriented device it's not going to be like you know just like the mac pro most people are never going to want to buy one of those but I don't want to see if they actually have to put cameras on there if they do I'm sure they'll probably be pretty much the standard things from the ipad 2 I don't really see them stepping that they're on as far as the pricing goes I would not be surprised this is going to be much much more stupid than the ipad to us of course in the ipad 2 starts to about five hundred dollars and if Apple really is going with this ipad HD they're really aiming for that really expensive market where you people paying you know 1,500 2,000 dollars for some laptop maybe me like a macbook pro let me spread they put this somewhere around a thousand dollars or so anyway guys that's it for this week's
